It is called "cooking" and you see how saturated it is? It could work with this particular photo but it does come across as "harsh". Sorry, I've never been a fan of cooked photos.
For your original I would:
knock down brightness just a couple points
increase blacks,vibrance and contrast
just a couple on saturation
a touch on fill light and knock some blue off.
You could also recover some of the clouds and crop more of "panorama" style to lose the yellow line.
Photograph at the level of your side mirror also.
